DIM Weight Solved: Repackaging Toys

With so many people doing holiday shopping online this year it’s likely you’ll receive some packages that are full of paper or air pillows with one or two small items in the box. It’s frustrating as a consumer to get a package that’s so large and full of filler that you have to dispose of, but if you’re the retailer or distributor that’s shipping those packages out you have an ever bigger problem – freight costs that are much higher than they should be.

I repacked the same two items in a smaller box I had laying around the house:
This box measured 17” x 14” x 9” which equals a dimensional weight of 16 lbs. That’s a 20 lb. REDUCTION!

Now consider this, if you’re shipping out 500 packages a day that are all 20 lbs. over what they could be … you are paying for 10,000 lbs. of freight needlessly every single day.
